Ignore the media
I am thinking that most people are reasonable, and good and that the media caters to the the loud mouth bigots simply because they are, well, loud.
I would like to believe that the majority of the every day people I run into in my life are live and let live kinda folks. This theory bears out in the people I meet and the students I teach but sometimes I forget because of the hate spewed by the media. I need to remain scrupulous in my choices to ignore the jerkfaces of the media and focus on the many many people I see every day. I think that this is the only way I can preserve myself from loosing hope for our future.

Vacation over with. Starting back to work tomorrow
Its Fall time. And even though things will slow down at work its the time of the year for my bosses to be real asses. Local News Crew was at my church today interviewing people over the Would Jesus Discriminate Billboards that are around DFW. |

Why did my hair turn out three shades lighter than my natural color and red instead of the nice deep brown (that matches my haircolor) as promised on the box?
Not the look I was trying for... L'Oreal, you really let me down this time! |

I wish I could take a long walk under the moon light...I need to think and soak up some fresh air....
but after seeing a snake on my last walk at nearly sundown, I think I'll refrain. I'm exhausted.... |

my good friend JoSchmooze sent me a beaitiful set of three nighties for my stay at the CC. In the CC I was getting lovely compliments about them and couldnt wait for them to get washed when I got home so I could wear them around the house too.
well tonight I read where they had hired Diane Von Furstenburg, to design gowns for the CC! I saw her first designs and i had worn one for my surgery! It was so much more comfortable!

steak bloody rare so can lick the blood off the plate when I am done
rubbing lotion on my feet about 5 times a day each wearing something that isnt button down the front riding a horse wondering what the scale is going to say next time I go to my surgeon's remember those scales that spoke to you when you got on them? You dont run into them at garage sales and fleas. I think people got mad at them and took out their batteries. I wonder if thats considered abusive?

We have corn fields and soybean fields everywhere you look for MILES.... but not a single sidewalk. My city dog, Willy, is missing his daily side walk tour of the city trees and fire hydrants. With the corn fields being harvested around these parts, we have to watch for 'country snakes' everywhere. So far this year, I've seen several harmless garden snakes...and a couple large poisonous country snakes. If I'm not freaking out at the snakes, I'm flipping out at the spiders.... especially the big hairy ones I've found lately and the Black Widows. Makes me not wanna go barefoot anymore. |

LOL! The last place I lived was smack dab in the middle of grain fields... alternated yearly between corn and soy ( wheat was beforehand) and EVERY year for 16 years when the corn got cut... first came the onslaught of field mice to be quickly followed by the snakes chasing the mice! It was like a three week menagerie/ nightmare every year. Ya get used to it after a while, but I tell ya, I'm not sure my lady could have dealt with another year of the snakes... Good luck! Your area has brown recluse also, so do be careful with the spideys! |

Brown Recluse!!!! I have found two VERY LARGE creepy spiders in my laundry!!! and one on the kitchen counter!! I screamed more with the spiders than I did with the snakes! And my housemate just laughs, chuckles and makes fun of me!! Finding those JURASSIC sized creepy legged things in my laundry has taught me NOT to let my dirty jeans land or lay on the floor.... and I ALWAYS shake out my clothes and shoes now!! CREEPY!!! |

I worked ICU this evening at the veterinary referral hospital that I work for and it was really rough. It's a very large, nice hospital and I've never covered the evening criticare reception position. I had six emergencies in two hours - ranging from a very sweet kitty hit by a car, a year old female golden retriever who had managed to undo all of her spay stitches to an a crazy (cute) little Yorkshire terrier with a cracked toe.
The cat, Bagheera, belonged to a young 14 year old girl. He was so amazing that after he got hit by the car he somehow found the strength to crawl into a gutter to hide - he also crawled out of that gutter to his owners repeated calls. It's times like these when I'm not sure why cats are so resilient. He was so far gone and treatment was going to consist of three surgeries and cost over $7,000, so they decided to euthanize. It really sucked to look at that young girls tear streaked face, being just as strong as she could be. So I'm sending my love out to little Bagheera.. and Rachel too. . . Meanwhile, I'm squeezing my own little babies tight. . . trying to find some kind of understanding in a shower of salty tears.

Going through the hell part now of having opened my mouth and said something that hurt someone badly this past Saturday and I deserve every bit of it and much, much more. She is getting her anger out now and I am hanging with her. I am taking every bit of it because she deserves the opportunity to express how she feels about what I said. I will not run off and abandon her again. I am hanging with her to the end of this, wearing my big boy boxers and taking it like a big boy - regardless of what happens.
When I am insensitive as well as selfish and do not think about what I am saying ... there are consequences. I do not want to hurt her like this ever again. Damn, as she has always said, I can really be a 2x4 butch. Oh, I wish I could erase what I said. Everything was going so good and smooth on Saturday, then I had to go and be a dickhead. Big changes are in the making for me. It does not matter if she decides she will or will not want to speak to me again - I am determined to change this particular trait in me and by damn, I will! I am just praying we can move past this incident. I do not want to lose her again. I cannot stand the thought of not being able to talk to her anymore. It makes me so sad to think of that. Will this ever blow over? Last Saturday afternoon seems like an eternity ago. I am stressed to the max. Oh well, too bad - it is all my fault. This one is entirely on me. I love her. Happy Day to all you Planet people! |
